I have hidden them in my account settings...
never found them of much use.

Perhaps people abused the Breaking News categorization for regular and lame posts and the mods decided to tighten it up. Dunno.

It is still there, but may be taken over soon by the Humor sidebar.

Pop in to https://freerepublic.com/perl/manage-blocks

...and verify that your selections reflect what you want to see on your “Pings” page https://freerepublic.com/perl/pings

It may just be a setting has gotten tweaked.

I gave up on going to bars many, many years ago...
Always seemed to find trouble there...

You’re correct. Breaking news is rarely what it purports to be.

Yes, my flame-retardant suit is on, but this is an honest question.

Our hands have been smacked too many times so we stopped sharing.

It’s not just you. I have on occasion in the last couple years posted important breaking stories in the “breaking” section only to have the breaking tag removed by a moderator. I do agree that people have abused it in the past so maybe they are cracking down.

Yeah the side bars don’t offer much anymore. I also notice that I can find a lot more conservative news from the conservative commentators on Rumble and Youtube than I can find here. Maybe it is just hard to find conservative printed news stories anymore. I have often wondered.

Nobody uses them anymore.
Many legitimate breaking news stories get zotted.
Why bother?

It’s like they won’t allow any news on breaking news. I honestly started going to x/twitter since FR lost it’s breaking news.

I rarely find any of the posts on any of the side bars clickworthy.
